New York, NY (PRWEB)May 29, 2012

Kognitio, driving the convergence of Big Data and Cloud Computing through in-memory analytics, and Advanced Visual Systems (OTCPK: AVSC), the developer of innovative data visualization software that presents diverse forms of data as innovative and easily understandable graphic representations, today announced a strategic partnership to deliver superior insight to corporate and OEM end-users delving into advanced business intelligence, predictive analytics and next-generation decision support systems.

The two companies will focus the new partnership on vertical industries such as advertising, consumer behavior and social media. Kognitio’s in-memory analytical platform will be paired with AVS’ advanced data visualization application programming interface (API), allowing clients to exploit extremely complex data and visualize the results in ways that reveal previously undetectable patterns, trends and anomalies.

Kognitio’s ability to analyze multiple terabytes of data in a fraction of the time of competing solutions, coupled with AVS’ powerful and highly expressive visualization capabilities enables departmental, enterprise and ISV product teams to achieve new levels of decision quality from large and complex data warehouses, real-time streams, unstructured data and complex networks.

“Large and complex data have become critical components of many analytic projects. Most data visualization tools, however, tend to over-aggregate data in order to present it,” said Steve Sukman, chief executive officer of AVS. “Our approach is to provide thousands of techniques for visualizing granular, filtered and analytically-enhanced data to produce faster and more confident decisions from large and complex data. Kognitio’s superior performance allows granular data to be utilized effectively and opens up a world of new possibilities for our clients to capitalize on high impact data visualization.”

The Kognitio in-memory analytical platform is built from the ground up, to satisfy large and complex analytics on Big Data sets. Leveraging more than a generation of real-world experience, companies around the world, across a wide range of vertical industries, rely on Kognitio every day to gain powerful insights from vast amounts of data in a fraction of the time and cost of competing solutions.

“Increasingly powerful data analytics require similarly powerful tools to visualize the insights,” said Michael Hiskey, Kognitio vice president of business development and marketing. “Partnering with AVS helps us deliver a complete package, capable of producing results in less time and with deeper discovery capabilities than ever before.”
